Solid Wood Flooring

A big advantage that solid wood flooring has is in its application.

Whilst thick engineered floors are incredibly durable, it does sometimes limit their usage, as they are heavier. Being less bulky, authentic solid wood can be used on every surface. Walls, ceilings and floors can all be covered in these solid woods, adding much-needed character and textural feeling to spaces.

Many of these woods are packed with soul and vibrancy that draws attention to all decorative surfaces. These woods make for perfect feature walls and stand-out spaces.

Being entirely solid, these floors can be sanded down time after time within your project, returning the original look (minus the texture) and allowing your flooring to last a lifetime. This works in the same manner as a wear layer on an engineered floor, only much thicker, with some of our reclaimed solid woods being 20mm in thickness.

Once you’ve made the investment into a beautiful new solid wood floor, you’ll want to install it correctly, to ensure that the floor will last the lifetime you come to expect from our floors.

Solid woods can be installed on walls, floors and even ceilings, but we do not recommend them for use over underfloor heating. The heat can manipulate the structure of the wood and issues. For more information we highly recommend reading our guide on how to install your solid wood flooring.

Caring for your floor correctly is just as important as the fitting process, and such care should be completed by using one of our carefully created care systems. Read our guide on floor care.

Whether you are looking to use solid wood flooring for a living room floor, a hotel room ceiling, or even a bar covering, we have seen it all through the years. If you need some inspiration, why not visit our projects page or our gallery.

These woods are highly effective when used on surfaces above the floor in particular. Commercial spaces wanting a feature wall can benefit massively from our Bold Surfaces, which can be used to express brand identify, and make a bold design statement.
